Led by the Justice for Jocques Coalition and local chapter of Black Lives Matter, the march moved in silence as officers stayed nearby to ease traffic.

Around 7:20 p.m., the group was told by police to move out of the road and onto the sidewalks as they made their way down 21st Avenue South, saying they were obstructing traffic in violation of state law.

However, the protesters didn’t move and continued through the streets in silence, stopping at the intersection of 20th Avenue South and Bernard Street near Mayor Barry’s home.

One member then led the group in a prepared statement, saying they want justice for Jocques, before they placed an empty, coffin-shaped box in front of the mayor’s home.

They then lit a candle in front of a small poster that reads, “Chief Anderson, Mayor Barry, you let this happen.”

Members of Clemmons’ family were in attendance but didn’t speak.

As protestors left, they also left behind their protest signs on the fence surrounding Mayor Barry’s home. It didn’t appear that the mayor was home, but she has been invited to a town hall by the Justice for Jocques Coalition on May 20. No word yet on whether she will be there.
